The category 3 storm Hurricane Milton exited Florida on Thursday morning, leaving behind a trail of destruction in the US state and causing billions in damage. However, Florida Governor Ron DeSantis said the worst-case scenario was avoided by the Category 3 storm.
The hurricane was bringing deadly storm surge to much of Florida’s Gulf Coast, including densely populated areas such as Tampa, St. Petersburg, Sarasota and Fort Myers.
"Unprecedented, catastrophic, historic, record-breaking," Hurricane Milton is expected to grow in size before landfall, posing an “extremely serious threat” to Florida, The World Meteorological Organisation warned.
